Mark Maule fd58e55fcf [PATCH] PCI: msi abstractions and support for altix
Abstract portions of the MSI core for platforms that do not use standard
APIC interrupt controllers.  This is implemented through a new arch-specific
msi setup routine, and a set of msi ops which can be set on a per platform
basis.

Grant Grundler 8169b5d238 [PATCH] PCI: make it easier to see that set_msi_affinity() is used
I missed this usage in drivers/pci/msi.h:

#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
#define set_msi_irq_affinity    set_msi_affinity
#else
#define set_msi_irq_affinity    NULL
#endif

set_msi_affinity() is declared and exclusively used in msi.c.
Here's a better way so (hopefully) history doesn't repeat itself.

Ashok Raj 54d5d42404 [PATCH] x86/x86_64: deferred handling of writes to /proc/irqxx/smp_affinity
When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte
entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause
chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts.

CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the
interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well.
Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing.

- Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for
  lack of a generic name.
- added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64
- Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq
  handling time.
- Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead
  it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set.
- Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating
  when using generic irq framework.

Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off.
Tested UP builds as well.

MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I
did test an earlier version of this patch.  Will test in a couple days.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 70549ad9cf [PATCH] PCI: clean up the MSI code a bit.
Mostly just cleans up the irq handling logic to be smaller and a bit more
descriptive as to what it really does.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
